FAIRVIEW PARK, Ohio — Police say a man admitted making bomb threats against a suburban Cleveland elementary school using another man’s name as retaliation in a business dispute between the two.

Fairview Park police said the suspect was in custody yesterday and charges were pending.

The two threats led to evacuations and searches to clear the school, about 10 miles west of Cleveland. No explosives were found.

Police said a threat forwarded to the department on Oct. 8 was signed with a name, but investigators determined that person wasn’t responsible. They said the second threat was received yesterday on a police department employee’s cellphone. Police say they traced the source of the text.
